Need help finding information
Ok...alot of you are way better than me at finding mysteriously "lost" information. I've been on ancestry.com for a year and half...and still can not find a whole lot of documentation to follow my great great aunt.
Her name was Catarina DiLorenzo Giammarino. She was born January 8th, 1889. what little I do have of her...(1900 & census, ss death index, marriage cert) indicate she was born in America...BUT, her mother (Carmella Parella) came over with my great great grandfather in JUNE of 1889...
while here they americanized their names...so she became Cate Lawrence, except on "Really" official documents... She Married Paolo Giammarino in rochester in 1904 (when she was 15)...they had at least one daughter, named Helen. and for quite some time they lived in NYC...before she returned to her family in Rochester...and I don't know how long she was married for...or if her husband died long before she did or after...or if she had other children. all I know is she died in rochester in the early 1970s...
so anyhelp tracing her through time (via census or other records...) would help sooooo much.
thanks guys!!

Re: Need help finding information
Carmela Parella arrived January 15, 1880 with (??) from Antwerp on the SS rhynland at age 6 destined to Hartford Connecticut. Since I did no have grandfathers name perhaps you might want to research this in the www.castlegarden.org website. =Peter=

Re: Need help finding information
thank you peter. but Carmela didn't come over until 1889. she only ever made one trip over. my great grandfather's name was Ferdinando DiLorenzo...he went back and forth for a few years. his eldest son (my Great grandfather) Michele came over in 1887 and went back and forth a couple of times.
But Carmela only made one trip over. June 17, 1889. in 1900 they were living with his brother in Glen Falls NY...and Carmela had just died during childbirth with uncle Joe.

Re: Need help finding information
Did you try for any Boston entries? Since they were destined upstate it would have been easier to travel from Boston rather than NYC. =peter=

Re: Need help finding information
I have their ship manifests. they just don't show Catarina on any of them. she was only 6 months old...so I"m not sure if they even recorded her as a passenger...but I have her brother (my g grandfather), I have her mother and her father's ...
but what I also don't have...and more interested in (right now anyway) is her 1910 through 1930 census and other assorted records from her adulthood...

Hi Fredoniapeaches!

Re: Need help finding information
thank you. I do have this record. that' s how I found out who she married all of the information i have on her is very conflicting. her death record states she was born in NYS...in January of 1889. so I don't know what to believe.
Re: Need help finding information
Do you know the birth date and place of Helen her daughter?...

Re: Need help finding information
the closest I can come to a birth place is NYS. as for Helen's birthdate...between 1909? and 1930?

Re: Need help finding information
on July 6th, 1935 from the Rochester Union and Advertiser (newspaper, Rochester, NY) Ferdinando's Obit...
Cate is listed as Mrs. Catherine Lorenzo. but her youngest two sisters were listed as DiLorenzo (her other sisters who were married were listed with their husbands' last names.)
So, I have no idea what ever happened to her husband, the only document I have with his name on it...is their marriage record. and between 1910 and 1930...I have nothing on Catherine or her family at all.
